camper bed: Will it keep me from feeling the springs in my camper bed?

we put one of these (queen size) in our bed that was in our travel trailer and it made a HUGE difference. We also put one on our pull out sofa and did wonders padding the springs and steel support bars. You can still feel the support bars a little but it did make a big improvement.

Be sure to take the tension off the sway control if backing sharply. Otherwise, I haven't had any backing into my driveway or campground.

I think if you had a solid base, like a flora or a piece of plywood, it would probably work well for you, but if you had it on slats or weak box springs, I would worry that you could feel the bumps through the mattress.

My son teenage sun is only 115lbs and he said he felt every spring and metal bar. I put one of those mattress pads on it and he said it was way more comfortable. I weight 168 and i feel as if it will collapse under me! Plus the heavier the person the more squeaky it gets.

Yes, ours did too, and I could feel a spring on my hip. Don't get me wrong, this is not the perfect solution, only a seriously expensive mattress will do that! lol We have had our topper now for about 2 months or so and it is so much better! no more pain in my hip, very comfortable. But be sure to get the quality topper. Do not go for the cheaper eggshell version. Believe me it is worth it!

I have two queen size beds. On is the tradional metal frame with a bar in the middle. And I have a wooden bred frame with a bar in the middle also. I have added a bunny board to each bed. On bed has a box springs as well and one doesn't. It works either way and the back support feeling is great. I have no additional bars or internal legs in the frame. If you do it's fine also. The addition and use of the bunny board is the best thing I could do since I have had back surgery and still have a very bad back. It works great and I get a good nights sleep. Go for the bunky bed boards!!

I do not use mine on the bed. I put it under my feet for 10-15 mins. That's all it takes to make a difference in how I feel.

You will need a platform or box spring. I put mine in a camper and it is very comfortable.

It doesn't ruin the firm feeling of a mattress. It has enough thickness to not feel the wires, though. One thing I recently noticed (not sure if it's a recent defect, but I think it is) is that it doesn't heat to the end (or top) of the mattress by about a foot on either end. Leaves my feet freezing cold!

Guessing about an inch or more, I had some springs I could feel in my mattress it completely eliminated then feel of them!

Yes, although the springs are not as deep as a regular mattress. I love this mattress. Replaced an old fold out sofa bed mattress with this and it's great! Inflates in a minute or less and you can decide how firm you want it. Also, deflates quite easily. Not a daily sleeper (in a 5th wheel camper), but no complaints here. I believe the Amazon price w/free shipping is the best I found.

I put this in my RV and I love it. But it's a short mattress I don't know how well it would work over a normal length box spring. That could be a problem.

It does feel comfortable within 10 minutes! As you see from other posts. the mattress is very bulky and heavy. That's because it is much more foam than air. I do a lot of camping, but I had to cancel my fall camping trip, so I haven't slept on it yet.

Yes. It doesn't get warm enough to cause a problem. Mine is suspended on a panel over my feet, so the weight isn't on my feet, and it's just warm enough to be comforting. Hope this helps.

We had a thin piece of press wood on the springs under the mattress with the sensors between them. I think the wood was less then $10 at the local home store.

Best bet would be a set of airlift air bags. They help take the load off the springs and keep the truck level.

Hello Andrew, I am unaware of my couch having springs... The cushions are foam on my couch. There is an area on this site that may help if you go to Your Account/ Orders/ under More Orders Actions it says Return or Replace items. I have not tried it myself yet but it may be helpful to you. Good luck!
